Install one of the desktop meta packages -
==> aptitude search ubuntu-desk
p   edubuntu-desktop
                       - edubuntu desktop system
p   edubuntu-desktop-kde
                       - edubuntu desktop system with KDE desktop
p   kubuntu-desktop
                       - Kubuntu desktop system
p   ubuntu-desktop
                       - The Ubuntu desktop system
p   xubuntu-desktop
                       - Xubuntu desktop system

So to get the regular Gnome desktop you would do 'sudo aptitude
install ubuntu-desktop'

PS Yes, there are other options as well, but I doubt the OP is interested
